Bunch-Type Growth Habit

Definition:

Bunch-type Growth Habit

A habit among growing grasses where the blades appear bunched. A bunch-type growth habit is usually due to the production of a lot of tillers, or growth units from the base of the blades. The growth of the grass or plant then only happens by tillering, which makes the stem bend evenly along its entire length, resulting in a bunch.
